Materials
3 FQs of Calico Cats fabric cut into 5.5" squares Just over 1yd of spotty fabric cut into 2.5" strips Scraps of rainbow coloured fabrics cut into 3" squares Backing fabric, ready made binding, fusible batting.
What was your inspiration?
I found the kitty fabric online and it really just went from there. I had planned to make a quilt for the Linus Project but my youngest daughter saw the blocks and fell in love with it. It's only the second quilt I've ever made and I'm absolutely hooked!
What are you most proud of?
I love the overall effect with the colours and I came across the spotty fabric by accident... the quilt just evolved as it went along but the colours of the spots just seemed to bring it all together.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Just go with the flow and see what you end up with - you'll be surprised at what you can make... I was!
